I went back and revisited this and came up with the following work flow, using 3 bodies in PartDesogn.
- Create cone and apply thickness inward
- Copy cone (rename to cone-external) and apply thickness outward
I'm leaving out the details for now.
Use PartDesign Boolean and fuse the "cone" and the "box" (this should result in one solid object)
Use PartDesign Boolean and cut "cone-external" from the cone/box fusion (this should delte the portion of the box that extends outside of the original cone)
However the Boolean fuse operation moves the box, any idea what I'm doing wrong?
